ABSTRACT Accurate precipitation is crucial for hydrological modelling in sparse gauge regions like the Lam River Basin (LRB) Vietnam. Gridded data from satellite and numerical models offer significant advantages such areas. However, estimates (SPEs) are subject to uncertainties, especially high variable of topography precipitation. This study focuses on enhancing accuracy Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals Global Precipitation Measurement (IMERG), Climate Prediction Center morphing technique (CMORPH) using Quantile Mapping (QM) technique, aligning cumulative distribution functions observed with those SPEs, assessing impact predictions. The highlights that post-correction IMERG QM performs better than other sets, model's performance LRB at different temporal scales. Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency values increased 0.60 0.77, surpassing original IMERG's 0.52 0.74, correlation coefficients improved 0.79 0.89 (compared previous 0.75–0.86) modelling. Additionally, Percent Bias (PBIAS) decreased approximately −1.66 −2.21% (contrasting initial −20.22 4.6%) corrected SPEs. These findings have implications water resource management disaster risk reduction initiatives Vietnam countries.
